Can coordinated care ease the burden of brain metastases?
NCT ID NCT06280300
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares intensive multi-disciplinary care (a team of specialists working together) to standard care for 40 adults with newly diagnosed brain metastases from solid tumors. The goal is to see if the team approach reduces symptom burden and helps patients better understand their prognosis. Participants will complete questionnaires about their symptoms and outlook.
